A Night with Her Cruel Mate

There were a lot of well-known entertainers present at Director Guo's birthday party. It was obvious that he maintained one of the highest positions in the industry.

When Julia arrived, there were many media outlets outside the venue. She was a little nervous. Fortunately, Consuela was there to accompany her.

"Take it easy. Have a talk with Director Guo when you see him," Consuela said, trying to comfort her.

To Julia's surprise, Director Guo came to her when she entered the hall. He gently took her hand in his and said, "Miss Gu, you're here! I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"We apologize that you had to wait for so long, Director Guo." Consuela sheepishly smiled. "Please accept this gift from Julia."

Director Guo nodded his head. "Look at you, you're so polite."

As he spoke, he gave the box to someone behind him.

He looked at Julia and asked, "Miss Gu, can I talk to you for a minute?"

"Sure." Julia glanced at Consuela, and nodded in agreement.

"I really like this script. If it's shot well, then it will be a hit nation-wide. Both the male and female leads are A-list artists and I've spent so much money on this movie. I called you over because I'd like for you to accept the female supporting actress in this movie. Are you confident that you are qualified for the role?" Director Guo asked Julia, a gleam in his eyes.

He was doing this for Jean's sake, but Julia also looked so much like the female supporting actress in the movie.
